For culinary thrills — you can try even more by blending with hummus variations

- Try the CTS pic hummus experiment. Add cottage cheese and mix. (Special to Darragh Doiron/News)
Every good Southerner is trained to have nibble fixin in the pantry in case a visitor drops in. These days, I think hummus is a good option.
Have a can of chickpeas ready to mix with olive oil and lemon juice (requires tahini).
Forget the company Sometimes you just crave things.
I served a happy guest and confessed that there was a lot of cottage cheese in the blend.
You can sample other beans as well.
So substituting white, pinto, or black beans may not technically be hummus, but either way, there are healthy options for bean dips.
Did I just starve myself into the hummus?
Please blend.
It’s for Dogs – If you love crunchy, creamy, all-natural peanut butter, don’t forget it will be your dog’s favourite. Paw Power Nutrition explains why their blend is better than some nut butters humans eat. Reviews indicate that many pet owners feel the same way.
Well, I’m not a pet owner. But when the pumpkin and blueberry version came to my house for a dog acquaintance of mine, I researched and then sampled it. The texture of the nuts is very good, and I think this is just a fine butter. Keep your puppy occupied longer by filling toys with this butter and storing them in the freezer. Conceal medicine, serve directly from a spoon or licking mat, or divert attention to nail clipping time. Cook healthy snacks. I heard from dogs I know that they have sampled different blends. The owner says it hits all over the place. Get watered down at pawpowernutrition.com.

Rocking It – Tsuri means rock. Eat lavender and yuzu for fragrant body care and wash produce with lime-based products. Her creator, Ashli Goudelock, is a certified prescriber cultivating a community of women who recognize the need for self-care. This Georgia-based Alpharetta company dazzles with Yuzo + Ylang Ylang Body Oil Her Bar and Cashmere + Vanilla Body Cream. A new way to enjoy cashmere with “same ingredients as skin”. I have sampled some of these gorgeous products that will enhance you and your home environment.
Ink & Bump – There are certain scents that I associate with a good, healthy life. The rosehip, lemongrass, and lavender in Ink Oil’s Bump Oil lure me into New Year’s resolution season. Designed to reduce the scare and itchiness of stretch marks, the label has a silhouette of a woman with children. I love it. I’m not “covered in tattoos and dog hair”, but I know where you can get this sentimental t-shirt. Shopinkoil.com has special soaps and more to care for your inked skin. We are here for the bonus blend.
